  <p class="para">
   This module provides wrappers for the System V IPC family of functions.
   It includes semaphores, shared memory and inter-process messaging (IPC).
  </p>
  <p class="para">
   Semaphores may be used to provide exclusive access to
   resources on the current machine, or to limit the number of
   processes that may simultaneously use a resource.
  </p>
  <p class="para">
   This module provides also shared memory functions using System V
   shared memory. Shared memory may be used to provide access to
   global variables. Different httpd-daemons and even other programs
   (such as Perl, C, ...) are able to access this data to provide a
   global data-exchange. Remember, that shared memory is NOT safe
   against simultaneous access. Use semaphores for synchronization.
   <table class="doctable table">
    <caption><strong>Limits of Shared Memory by the Unix OS</strong></caption>
    
     <tbody class="tbody">
      <tr>
       <td>SHMMAX</td> 
       <td>max size of shared memory, normally 131072 bytes</td>
      </tr>

      <tr>
       <td>SHMMIN</td>
       <td>minimum size of shared memory, normally 1 byte</td>
      </tr>

      <tr>
       <td>SHMMNI</td> 
       <td>
        max amount of shared memory segments on a system,
        normally 100
       </td>
      </tr>

      <tr>
       <td>SHMSEG</td>
       <td>
        max amount of shared memory segments per process, normally 6
       </td>
      </tr>

     </tbody>
    
   </table>

  </p>
  <p class="para">
   The messaging functions may be used to send and receive messages to/from
   other processes. They provide a simple and effective means of exchanging
   data between processes, without the need for setting up an alternative
   using Unix domain sockets.
